Easi-Dec, the working at height safety specialist, is helping to eliminate the possibility of roof top accidents with its range of safety solutions for those accessing fragile industrial roofs.

“With various weak spots and uneven surfaces, industrial roofing is prone to being fragile, making it an unsafe environment for workers undertaking roof top maintenance” explains Soni Sheimar General Manager at Easi-Dec “Easi-Dec has developed its range of products to ensure that it can provide a safety system that is suitable for all requirements and simplify short duration roof work.”

Board-WalkEasi-Dec’s range of roof access equipment includes Board-Walk, a portable mesh walkway. Running from the eaves to ridge, the system spreads the weight across the support battens, allowing the workers to confidentially move along the full length of the system. Made of high grade aluminium, the structure is lightweight, easily transportable and can be used on roof pitches up to 30 degrees.
